I didn't go to the NEC because Ducati weren't there. I was planning to go to Excel in Feb with a couple of chums. Would be a weekend though.

Absolutely - would have to be Sat or Sun and no doubt I could find chips and cake too!!!!!

Sounde like a good idea. Fish and chips sounds better.

16-11-2006, 08:54 PM

Hell yes - combined with a look at the new 07 bikes the day sounds perfect already

Sarfend in Feb... BRRRRRR! Still, Excel's convenient for me.

It must be a London thing... nothing for ages, then two come along together!

Seriously though, two shows separated by a few days and a few miles?

I can see few people benefiting here, as any trader at one isn't likely to want to do the other.

I plan on going to the ExCel show (much easier to get to), and as Rachel says, it will have the full range of Ducati's... and maybe I can bend someone's ear about dropping the baby Numpty from the range

Au contraire mon frere, If you've had to travel several hundred miles or more to do the show, going straight from one to the other without going home is great.

It really is on my doorstep, I can see the neon sign from my window.

Oh all this talk of the big smoke. Maybe I can combine a trip to Excel with some shopping, some people watching and some continental coffee. Sounds divine.

Hmmm - I hadn't quite thought of it that way.

Will be no budget to buy stuff, but going to these things on the bike always prevents shoppoing anyway!
